This bug report will be sent to the XEmacs Development Team,
not to your local site managers!!
Please write in English, because the XEmacs maintainers do not have
translators to read other languages for them.
Please describe as succinctly as possible:
- What happened.
- What you thought should have happened.
- Precisely what you were doing at the time.
Please also include any C or lisp back-traces that you may have.
================================================================
Dear Bug Team!
There are incorrect colors displayed in the first XEmacs frame, when the user
has set his/her background color to black through custom.
Steps to reproduce:
- Start a new XEmacs process, with no .xemacs directory (or .emacs)
- From the menu: options->edit faces
- Go to the `default' color, change its foreground to white, and its
background to black
** Notice that, at this point, the faces that have light/dark
** background alternatives, like hyper-apropos-hyperlink, are still
** set to the light-background version instead of the dark
** background version. This is a problem, but not the main problem.
- Close and restart XEmacs
- Load hyper-help (C-h a foo)
- Create a new frame with the same buffer (C-x 5 2)
Now, notice that the colors in these two frames are different. The
first frame has the hyper-apropos colors used for light backgrounds
(incorrectly), while the second frame has the hyper-apropos colors for
dark backgrounds (correct).
In general, the first frame seems to always use (incorrectly) the
colors for light backgrounds instead of dark backgrounds.
I can reproduce this on any version of XEmacs I try, from this beta
version on Linux to an old Solaris build from a year and half ago. It
appears to be very common, I've noticed it on my friends' computers too.
